"Choosing a GUI Package Manager" is erroneous.

> If you prefer a graphical interface, GUI front-ends like [Shelly](https://wiki.cachyos.org/configuration/post_install_setup/#updating-the-system) or the CachyOS Package Installer are considered as safe alternatives, as they are more direct wrappers for pacman functionality.

Is made up of some falsehoods.

The package-installer was only recently made more safe by no longer performing partial upgrades.

But it _still_ recommends that users perform it!

( https://github.com/CachyOS/packageinstaller/blob/fe7a7ea82f7a20e7a49b2c3ef89805c077460247/src/main.cpp#L168 )

Finally Shelly is _not_ a pacman frontend or wrapper at all.

It attempts to use ALPM directly, bypassing pacman, like pamac.

This stands in stark contrast to any true pacman wrapper like `octopi`.
